Description says this is for ages 1-6; picture shows ages 5-10. I believe the latter is correct, right?

Yes, ages 5-10 seems correct. Some reviewers mentioned letting three-year-old play. That's too young due to threat of choking if they put it in their mouth. Even kids who don't eat things anymore may still experiment with putting it in their mouth and accidentally swallow it. Why take a chance?

Our son is 3 and doesn't play with it much. There are also many small pieces so I would not recommend it for small children

I would suggest that it falls in between these two suggested age groups. My girls are 3.75 and 5.75 and they have both played with this set for the past year. Because there are small pieces, this definitely is not appropriate for one or two-year-olds or any child who is prone to put things in his mouth or nose. But my three-year-old has enjoyed exploring this on a regular basis since she was about 2.75.

I bought it from Amazon and the recommended age listed was 1-5. I do not believe a 5 year old would be entertainedby this toy. More importantly, the toy did not stand up to a 2 year old! He loved it, but I will not replace it.

I would say this toy is for the 2-5 age group. My 2 year old niece loves it and my 4 year old daughter enjoys it but seems to be outgrowing it.

No I would say this would be better for ages 1 to 5. And it would have to be a small 5 year old.

It would depend on the child. I would think for sure until 6. It's a good size. Just depends on the child's interests.

I got it for my daughter when she was 9 I believe and she doesn't play with it now and she is 10.. so I'm thinking 7 to 9

The box says ages 4 to 99. It depends on what a kid is into, I think it's be great for an eight year old.

It depends on the child but I would say around 2 and my 5 year old still plays with it.

The one I purchased is being used by 2 and 4-year-olds, but I believe it would still work just fine for a 6-year-old.

No , this is for ages 6 & up. There is a junior one that you can buy for 4 yr old kids.

The description says "3 to 7 year olds" My son started using it @ 2 years old and loves it but he is a big 2.

I'd say as young as 3 if coordinated, but def 3.5 or 4. My daughter loves hers. She will be able to use it through 5 yrs.

On the box it says "ages 8+". However, I think I remember my younger (than 8) children enjoying it as well, though they perhaps only did the simpler designs.

I bought it for my son who had just turned 5. He loved it, but it's a lot of slow work for a five year old, and I had to help put the pieces together. I'd say it's ideal for kids between 7 and 10.

My granddaughter is 3 and absolutely loves it. I would say no older than 5--it's small.

I believe the train says ages 2-5 and for my kids that is spot on! My 2 yr old plays with it and loves it but I can see my almost 4 yr old really likes building with the pieces.
